Possibly the fluffiest ESPN fluff piece that has ever happened. Kym never lets Hines get any sleep, Hines wants her to meet her competition, and they're both obsessed with pillows. (This looks like it was made the week before last, so pre-neck-drama. Remember when the mistaken handcuffing thing was the most drama they had? Bless.)

(Everyone else: This season of DWTS ends Tuesday. Your flists will soon be free of endless Hines/Kym spam. This seems important to mention since noradannan has started dreaming about me posting Hines/Kym spam, and that might be a sign I've gone over the top.)

There's more fic coming too once I figure out how to remove the suck from it. THIS PAIRING IS KILLING MEEE.

In other news, espnW is apparently a thing? ESPN for women? I can't decide how I feel about this. I think I'm pleased?

Sometimes, yes and sometimes no. They usually show the best auditions and also the worst, because they're more dramatic, so we end up with them either swooning over a dancer or making fun of people. So I tend to wait until a couple weeks in when they've picked the top 20 dancers and the competition starts.

ESPNW seems to be a blog so that women don't have to be fussed with all the bloggers gossiping about analyzing things. Instead we get the same blogs along with "special interest features" like which city has the best celebrity NBA fans. Perfect for RPF!

Dude. I saw that video last night, when I managed to sneak some time on the boy's computer. (Sadly, he's gotten me kind of computer-free when I hang out with him on the weekends. It's really unacceptable, but I go along with it because I something or other him... or something.) ANYWAY, I saw this and wanted to post this huge posty squeey thing to you, but alas, I was caught red-handed and then had to deal with the mocking and the (secret) shame.

I think I'm going to try watching it LIVE on real TV tonight. But... then, I dunno, because I'm a wussy and I don't know if I can handle that kind of stress of hoping and waiting for them to announce the winner. *TWITCHES FLAILS*

Eeeek! LIIIIIIIIIIVE! I am all anxious and I have to wait 3 more hours than you do. :) I can't wait. I might need to drink.

Is that video not the most ridiculously squeeful thing ever omg. They are like little kids! And he's totally not startled at all to see her in his trailer smacking him with a pillow. Ahahaha. They're so adorably infatuated with each other. :)

I kind of don't care who the winner is as long as these two hook up after. It can be celebration sex or consolation sex, either way. I'm still going to vote for them, though!

Hines & Chelsea were on Ryan Seacrest this morning (weird fact: Hines & Ryan used to play each other in high school football), and Chelsea was like "We have all these tricks!" and Hines is like "My trick is going to be to NOT DROP KYM." And there was another little preview of Hines & Kym in rehearsals where she's all "I'm better! I don't have to wear my neck brace!" and he's all "Yeah, you're going to put it on anyway." I just want to keymash for hours about how they need to hook up 4eva.

Chelsea was like "We have all these tricks!" and Hines is like "My trick is going to be to NOT DROP KYM."

I have watched the finals LIVE. It was weird for me. Luckily, I missed Chelsea's first dance. If I have to watch live, I'd rather there be less Douchebag and more Dimpled Cuteness! So to Chelsea's statement above, I say, "Errr, what?" And to Hines: Mission accomplished! I couldn't force myself to watch Kirstie. I'm just... going in hiding now... although I really need to find myself a hot ballroom dancer who can get me on the Kirstie Alley Weight Loss Cha Cha Cha Program, cuz DAMN.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I was going to be really scared of the dropping when they were all "Well, we'll still be doing tricks" and I'm like ARE YOU CRAZY, HINES YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO STOP HER BATSHIT INSANITY AND TIE HER TO A CHAIR OR SOMETHING. GAH. So hooray! I can watch now with eyes open!

LMFAO. I think I need a drink. It actually took me a minute to get the Heineken thing. The boy drinks that stuff. It's kind of eh, but if I were there, I'd help you get your money's worth. I may have to stay up just to watch you live blog... or maybe g-chat with you. (Who needs to wake up early and go to the gym? Not like I managed to do that once in the past month no matter how many times I said I would, so consistency is key - just ask Hines. lalalalala)
